Cape Town – photos
We we’re hoping to get up Table Mountain today but the tablecloth hung around all day so we will have to wait. Instead we went to the Scratch Patch to fulfill my Mum’s birthday wish for us. Then we went to Hout Bay and I got to catch up with a school mate from Henry Low Primary, Kerry Macdonald. We hadn’t seen each other since we left the school at the end of 1981. Fish and hips at Hout Bay were brilliant.
We spent some time at Sea Point and went on the ferris wheel (far helper than the one in Brisbane). Then we spent the rest of the day taking Lance to his childhood homes and schools. He is loving seeing the city of his birth as an adult!
Fish Hoek Beach
The place where we used to sit on our Fish Hoek holidays. We have several photos taken of us at this spot in the 80s.

Our ride for the next 12 days. A Mercedes!
I could hear the train whizzing passed in the pic at Fish Hoek. What a wonderful day you must have had. The Scratch Patch bags have shrunk since we were there last, I reckon. What a load of wonderful memories you’ll all taken on board.
